That is like saying, should I get the base model Kia or the Cadillac.. They are not in the same category. If your budget is under under $300 then then ace if it is over $600 then the ATP.

I've got the 250 Jonny. I like it, but I would think that if you wanted to upgrade from what you have, you may want to go straight for the Pro. I am going to start to think about upgrading, once I start to have more time for hunting. I like the idea of having the target ID displayed, and this is something the 250 doesn't have.

It would be interesting to hear why your buddy's dad likes the 250 better than the Pro.

You should watch Beau Ouimette's river hunting videos. That may help you decide. Atpros are silver magnets.

I have the AT Gold and the 250, really love the Gold... don't have to worry about it raining, cleans up easy and finds stuff. you will have more options with the Pro and better depth. my wife uses the 250 and loves it.
